Characteristics of "real" Vanity 6 cd

sigh Can some knowledgeable orgers help me out? I have been trying to find a "real" Vanity 6 cd for awhile, and I keep seeing ones that seem legit except for the following:
inside the liner notes where it says, "Players: The Time Produced and Arranged by The Starr Company..." the 'i' is missing in The Time. (Basically, it reads: "The T me"). Does that mean it's fake, or was it a little trick Prince did?

Thanks so much!

cool
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

My legit copy has the "I". The inside ring on the disc has the numbers 1 23716-2 SRC-01 and M3-S1.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Do you think the inside ring has to have both numbers or either/or?

I would imagine both, but my pressing is from the US. I'm not sure if there was ever a Japanese or Euro pressing, in which case there would be different numbers.
